I appear to have mistakenly thrown half a gammon away :eek: we can't find it and I flung some foil that I thought was quiche that had been left on the side all night. Oops.

Lovely dinner, lovely day, kids very giddy but in bed now. Everybody well fed and quietly content. FIL is doing bottom burps :eek: he's blaming my sprouts :rotfl:

Last item wrapped.. finally... My back is agony.. my hips hurt.. and my boys are noisy!!

Front room all festive again with gifts for the family attending tomorrow.. My family are spoiled!!

My mother just had the absolute cheek to complain the microwave we got her is a manual one.. hers has a hole in the door!!.. so is absolutely dangerous to use and she complained.. sometimes she is very ungrateful!

Shopping list done for tomorrow.. the big Tesco will of course be open

Evening all,

Hope you all had a wonderful day, mine was great, except dd1 up every hour on the hour asking if it was time to get up! Eaten lots, still eating and drinking.
Had a friend for Christmas lunch who has no family, fed him up nicely, then we went off to visit the in laws.

Everything great except the weather, Garden is flooded again, thinking of dizzy xx

Thanks very much for my secret santa, I will try to use it and see if it works! Children already comendeered pens though!

House covered in toys and tat, but I don't care!

Xxxxxx

bossymoo

msgnomey

Falalalala-la-lala...ignoring the rain...flood warning?

Fabulous day. Too much food. Just enough wine. Spoilt with pressies. Big fat thank you to my Secret Santa for my delish hand creams and cute mirror. Safely tucked away in my handbag before DSD sees that and "reallocates" it :rotfl:

Correction. Slightly too much wine and a 5am start in the morning to journey back to Sussex for the skids and Crimble round 2...groan...

Merry Christmas all you lovely ladies x

Mumto5

I'm happy and tired. A lovely day has been had.

Thank you to my secret shopper. The picture is beautiful and unique. It drew many ooos and ahhs when I unwrapped it in front of the masses I entertained today. I absolutely love it! Xxx

Good morning all!

We've been up since 6am. Both showered, dressed and eaten DD is mostly packed without using the list so she's gone upstairs to check what she's packed against the list. She's leaving here about 9.30am, leaving her dads about 10.30am and will hopefully be at her grandparents up in Cumbria by 12 if all goes well.

I did nothing yesterday after eating dinner except go and see family so I need to wash up now then put gifts away once DD has left. Not sure whether I want to take the tree down today, or leave it until Wednesday when DD is home. I had planned to take the dog for a walk, but it raining here. I'm going to try and clear the end of the lists for something to do that will keep me awake and away from the sales and food

Sat 26 - DD going away and relax :rotfl:

To do:
Laundry - towels, dark, light
Set up recordings on dvr
All laundry away

Monday Mayhem..
Tuesday - Time's nearly up!!!
Wednesday ~almost done!!

• Mop the kitchen

Christmas Eve - FRANTIC FRENZY

• Quick whizz over carpets.

Christmas Day

• Delegate pot washing
  
• A quick S&S over the kitchen should see it looking fabulous again If you leave it by New year it will be a tip!!
• Wipe the table/table cloth
• Quick wipe over the hob should see it sparkling again
• Start thinking of those resolutions you will be breaking by the middle of January! lol

Today is a tidy up and start planning for the new year day. I might sit and read one of my new books later but I'll see how tired I'm feeling. :wave:

Morning.........slinks back in by the back door.......

Quick review of Skinty's 2015

CF kicked into touch, nuclear war started, CF being an CF of epic proportions...

Baby bag removal operation failed, as too anaemic, injected with prostrate cancer meds which sends the BD on a feeding frenzy.......marble bag is just about intact, but only just

Stupid pancreas has given up with all the stress and no baby in occupancy this time, so this is it for life......good job I had the two dry runs with DS and DD4. Life is full of BM, insulin and a cabinet full of meds

CF wrecked my career in banking by stopping mortgage and making me use last of my emergency funds to pay it, given he wasn't paying proper maintenance.

Judge wants house sold, borrowing cash off my mum regularly to get work done and complete to a saleable condition. CF is ringing and harassing estate agents like Rumpelstiltskin stamping his foot saying the house is his. House supposed to be live this morning, only 2 out of 3 Agents are showing on line.

Currently out of clean clothes, and the house is covered in christmas gibble......and we have visitors expected in about 2 hours???????

Right, going to go on a bin bag dance first, then find something on the floor I want to wear and stick it through on a 30 minute wash......good job there are curtains at the downstairs windows this morning.....otherwise I would most definitely have to move, as I wouldn't be able to look my neighbours in the eye again.

Yes, bin bag dance.......off I go!
